The Rebirth of the Prince: Starting from Not Being a Doglicker

Before he knew it, eight days had passed since Su An came to the Nanfu Academy.

During this period, Su An had been searching for the whereabouts of the jade slip, but never found anything.

His daily life is very regular. He gets up early in the morning to meditate, and then goes to the dining hall to have breakfast.

In the morning, Su An did not listen to the teachers' lectures, but read a book by himself. After class, he would go to the teachers to ask questions.

At first, the teachers were quite dissatisfied with this, but after they asked Su An to answer questions several times and Su An answered fluently, the teachers knew that Su An could learn by himself and stopped paying attention to him.

During this period, the news that Su An used his connections to win the first place in the entrance examination of the Southern Palace Academy has become known throughout the city.

Many people privately said that Su An was seeking fame and reputation, and at the same time, they criticized the Guanwenxue Palace for being the best academy in Dajin but lacking any integrity.

Although the Palace of Literature had already issued a notice that there was no problem with Su An's grades, the academy did not make Zhou Wenruo's actions public, so not many people believed the Palace of Literature's notice.

Although the Palace of Literature did not care about Zhou Wenruo, when he cancelled Su An's grades, he used the name of the Zhou Mansion.

However, the fact that the Palace of Literature did not say anything did not mean that Su Wan had any concerns. As Su An's poem spread in the capital, many people did not understand the meaning of this poem.

It was not until the people from the Shenwei Marquis' Mansion informed the outside world of the whole story that people in the capital knew about it.

The eldest daughter of the Zhou family was assassinated by an evil cultivator. Su An, the son of Marquis Shenwei, got the news from his best friend, the daughter of General Huoqi, so he brought people to rescue Zhou Qingyu at the right time.

However, Zhou Wenruo suspected that he was the mastermind behind the ambush and acted out a show himself.

Moreover, even though Su An had already obtained the first place in the entrance examination of Guanwen Palace, his score was cancelled.

This time, no one said anything bad about Guan Wenxue Palace and Su An anymore.

After all, Zhou Wenruo would make all the hard work Su An had achieved invalid just by relying on his own conjecture.

This made many poetry lovers who admired Su An's talent, as well as women who admired the unparalleled elegance of the Marquis of Shenwei, very angry.

They all criticized Zhou Wenruo's behavior, saying that he was ungrateful and was simply an ungrateful person.

Nowadays, Zhou Wenruo's reputation is ruined.

People also know that Su An is not only gifted in poetry, but also talented in magic, even better than Zhou Qingyu.

Zhou Mansion, morning.

Lobby.

Si Xue sat in the main seat. She was wearing a goose yellow long dress with gold weaving. Her black hair was tied up, revealing her slender white neck. Her face was gentle and delicate, her temperament was elegant and graceful, and she exuded a mature charm from head to toe.

She picked up the teacup and took a sip, then looked at Zhou Wenruo who was sitting below her and said calmly, "Now everyone in the city knows that you cancelled Xiao An's grades. Many people are saying that the Zhou family is unjust."

Zhou Qingyu's expression was a little complicated. Whether it was Zhou Wenruo canceling Su An's grades or Su An writing a poem to satirize Zhou Wenruo, it made her feel uncomfortable.

On one side is her savior, and on the other side is her loving second uncle.

But Zhou Wenruo can only be blamed for this matter. If Su An does not make the matter public, he will be criticized for no reason, which is very unfair to Su An.

Zhou Wenruo sat upright with a blank expression on his face, and no one knew what he was thinking.

The letter from Grand Secretary Zhou had already been delivered to the Zhou residence. The letter stated that Su An had nothing to do with the ambush and asked everyone in the Zhou residence not to make random suspicions.

In addition, he and Marquis Shenwei had already discussed the marriage of Zhou Qingyu and Su An, but the war in southern Xinjiang was tense, and he and Marquis Shenwei had no time to return to the capital.

Let Si Xue choose a date and bring Zhou Qingyu to the Shenwei Marquis Mansion to discuss the engagement.

It just so happened that three days later was an auspicious day, and Si Xue planned to bring Zhou Qingyu to visit on that day, but before that, she had to let Zhou Wenruo come to apologize first.

"Second brother, you and I will go to the Marquis' Mansion to apologize tomorrow." Si Xue said.

"Mom, should I go?" Zhou Qingyu asked.

It has been a long time since she last saw Su An. She had an idea in her mind to go to the Marquis' Mansion to meet him.

"You should go there too, and have some more emotional communication with Xiao An."

"I haven't had the chance to tell you yet that your father and Marquis Shenwei have already finalized your marriage with Su An."

"Three days later, I will take you to the Marquis' Mansion to discuss your engagement with Xiao An." Si Xue looked at her daughter and chuckled.

"got engaged?"

Hearing this word, Zhou Qingyu was slightly stunned.

Even though Si Xue had prepared her mentally.

But when she thought about the fact that she was really going to get married? And with Su An, Zhou Qingyu felt as if she was dreaming.

Marrying a man, then staying with him for the rest of your life, holding his hand and growing old together, this is an extremely romantic thing in the poems and essays she has read.

It’s just that she has never had someone she likes, so she has never envisioned this kind of life before. This kind of thing is strange and distant to her.

Now the image of my other half seems to be slowly becoming clearer.

But what should I do about Shishi?

Shishi likes Su An so much. What will she think when she knows that I am going to get engaged to Su An?

Zhou Qingyu frowned.

Si Xue saw Zhou Qingyu's reaction. She stood up and walked to Zhou Qingyu's side, gently stroking her head.

"When I think about you getting married soon, I feel a little sad. After all, you are my only child."

"But men should get married when they are old enough and women should get married when they are old enough. This matter has been decided. Think carefully about how to get along with Xiao An in the future."

"If nothing unexpected happens, he will be your future husband, the one who will accompany you for the rest of your life."
